Dungeons & Dragons is preparing to hurl itself into another decade with a revised 5th edition ruleset, and they’re making room in retailer warehouses with a Black Friday sale. And while it may have started early, this one still has plenty of deals to deliver through the holiday.
The biggest deals this year come in bulk, with buy 2, get 1 free sales at both Target and Amazon that include some excellent — already-discounted — campaign books and anthologies. The way these sales work is that you add three items to your cart, then you’ll get one of the items of equal or lesser value for free. You’ll also find that the latest D&D starter set has also been discounted.
Finally, WizKid’s newest over-the-top terrain set is called The Watchtower, and it only just started shipping this week. It’s a modular headquarters ready to become your gaming group’s bastion — or the setting for your campaign’s most climactic encounters. Originally priced at $289.99, it’s now down to $217.49.
